A few poetic definitions by Tomas of Aramaic words:
In my name (bshem):
When we live in behalf of the beloved pathmaker,
then we walk in accord with vast undertakings,
and talk in support of forgiveness and love.
Faith (haimenootha):
The stable and enabled state
which comes from postponing doubts
without insisting on specific outcomes.
Kingdom (malkootha):
If we await creation of a state of peace and grace,
praying for a potentate to save us from our own misplaced deeds,
then we diminish our sense of inner dominion ,
and home becomes a distant vision.
and also
Love reigns with painless inclusion,
sharing room at the Inn of Endless Caring,
daring us to enter an inner-dominion
where we surrender defenses.
Prayer (slotha):
Prayer is a carrier for attitudes, therefore be careful to attune
to
The source of love and gratitude.
Tell yourself only that which you wish to receive,
Then dispel fears and hear the Permeating Force of Germinating Permanence.
Be still, and place your will near the Interminable Generator of
Endless Returns.
Listen with rapt attention through the aperture of mind,
And attract powerful assets, growing from the soil of unspoiled
receptivity.
